ATC 28 front bedroom

From the website one of the nicer looking THs. What color did you get? I think your leap of faith will work out.

welcome to the toy hauler world.

I know zip about this brand though. Sounds like you have ample truck for just about anything.

just looked at their website. Cool looking trailer. Very "race car" like more so than "RV" and an aluminum frame! I've NEVER seen that before.

Hi Nayther,
Ya, the truck exists to haul a very heavy Arctic Fox truck camper.....handles it well along with towing the pontoon boat. But I am of the mindset that lean and mobile is the best way to go for my needs so overkill on the tow vehicle along with aluminum construction on the toy hauler works perfectly. We considered an enclosed trailer behind the truck camper for the Razor and motorcycle but then came the possibility of going south for a couple months during the winter and we could use the extra living space the TH has to offer. So.....here we are in this journey thru retirement trying to figure out what works the best for us. Kinda expensive but so far has been interesting and fun.

We got the pewter w/blacked out trim, red graphics and Stainless steel panel down the sides.

That color combo is great!

I'm also pursuing an ATC toy hauler. I'm still looking for a good dealer to work with but I'm thinking we will also pick it up at the factory then travel around on our way back to Idaho. Would you recommend the dealer you worked with?

Hoping you will keep updating this thread with your experience (and pictures) through this process with ATC. Looking forward to hearing about it.

And i'd love to see pictures of the Indian!

A friend is building an Indian four, not a chief and we're going on a ride when he gets it on the road; this guy has had some excellent stuff so i know this one will be great.

A friend of mine restores REALLY old bikes, like pre-1915 best. you may have heard of him, Steve Huntzinger?

I have been working with Brandon Eshuis at Premier Custom Trailers in Schoolcraft, Mich. They are the preferred dealer for ATC and are located about 56 miles north of the ATC factory. They are not charging any delivery or set up fees and are discounting off of MSRP about $7k. So far they have been very responsive to any questions I've asked. I contacted the factory and they have also been extremely good to work with.....but they are not staffed for setup/delivery. They will make an exception if necessary but would rather you go thru a dealer for delivery. With no fees being charged.....it makes sense to use the dealer. 10% down with a cc will get your trailer ordered. 6 to 8 weeks for build and delivery. Mine is scheduled to be completed 25 Sep and I take delivery on 29th. The savings in delivery and set up fees will more than pay for my road trip. Brandon went over all available options on the phone with me and I had a quote in about an hour. We will stop at the factory on the way to the dealership for a look at the mfg process and get some dimensions and location of backing for installation of some aftermarket stuff I have in mind. I have spent a lot of time researching this rig and I can't find anyone who has an issue with the ATC toy hauler or the way the factory folks have treated them. I especially like the way they are built and they have all the factory options I was looking for.
